We’ve got one bank holiday left until Christmas (argh!) so we here at Kaleidoscope say – let’s make the most of it!
The August bank holiday provides a perfect opportunity to spend some quality time en famille before the kids go back to school, if you’re a mum, and a perfect opportunity to enjoy a day off work without cutting into your annual leave. What’s not to like?
The key to a successful bank holiday break is planning, planning and planning. With just over three weeks to go, here are our top tips for planning a brilliant bank holiday break.
Put all of your medicines and sun creams into plastic bags so that you can see what you’ve got. Once they’re in their bags, they’re ready to be packed.
If you’re going away for a few days rather than a week, be strict with everybody’s packing. You can all take your favourite ladies fashion items, but not too many of them!
Double check that everybody’s passports and driving licences are valid. You don’t want any nasty surprises at the airport or car hire place.
If you’re staying in a hotel, check ahead to see what activities and facilities they have. Ask whether there are any day trips they would recommend and if they give any discounts for them.
